The Jean Monnet module
Ramona Coman coordinates for the IEE-ULB and La Faculté de Philosophy and Social Sciences since September 2018 a Jean Monnet Module dealing with the rule of law and mutual trust in global and European studies. In recent years, the salience of these concepts has considerably increased not only within the EU but also in other regions/regional organizations.
The aim of this project is to create a platform of academic and expert discussion that will shade light on current debates about the independence of the judiciary and the aim of specific judicial reforms in EU member states and beyond. The project brings together scholars and experts with academic backgrounds in different disciplines and plural views on the topic.
